    The Long-Distance Leader, Second Edition: Revised Rules for Remarkable Remote and Hybrid Leadership (The Long-Distance Worklife Series) by Kevin Eikenberry, Wayne Turmel https://amzn.to/3TweCZK The new edition of this internationally acclaimed guide to remote and hybrid leadership comes with an updated and enriched framework for the modern workplace. It introduces new principles and retains proven strategies for effective leadership across distances. When The Long-Distance Leader was first published, it was pre-pandemic and remote work was in its infancy with 30% of managers leading at a distance—now that number is well over 50%. As more organizations adopt a remote workforce, the challenges of leading at a distance become more urgent than ever. The cofounders of the Remote Leadership Institute, Kevin Eikenberry and Wayne Turmel, show leaders how to guide their teams by recalling the foundational principles of leadership whether their teams are remote, hybrid, co-working, or something entirely new! The authors' "Three-O" Model refocuses leaders to think about outcomes, others, and ourselves—elements of leadership that remain unchanged, whether employees are down the hall or halfway around the world. By pairing it with the Remote Leadership Model, which emphasizes using technology as a tool and not a distraction, leaders can navigate the terrain of managing teams wherever they are. This second edition features updated exercises that ensure projects stay on track, keep productivity and morale high, and build lasting relationships, along with a new chapter on hybrid workplaces.

Much Appreciation for W McGraw Accomplishments AND YET

Championship bull riding takes seconds and the bull rider has a sizable support staff with the clown and pickup men. Ditto the military with its huge support staff and the comradery of others. Granted combat engagements are a longer grind than bull riding; nevertheless, Mr McGraw offers little to those folk in the world who are the one and only care giver for a permanently disabled adult child (or parent or sibling). Caregiving can be a unrelenting daily grind with no pickup men or corps members to provide support. Caregivers don’t deal with dangerous animals except sometimes an inner beast; caregivers don’t engage with enemies of our country but sometimes they have to fight the good fight to stop themselves from becoming an enemy to the folk for whom they care. Great leaders and the movers and shakers come and go. However, my accolades belong to those who pick up the pieces left after the leader passed by
